There are 4 different ways through which you can improve your character in Kingdom Come: Deliverance. One of them is Skills. Skills can be upgraded over time to make a particular action of yours more effective.

There are many different Skills and all of them relate to one specific Character Trait such as Lockpicking. Upgrading a Skill to the higher levels will allow you to use Perks which will further increase the impact of that Skill. You can check out our Detailed Perks Guide for more information.

This Kingdom Come: Deliverance Skills Guide will tell you about all of the Skills that are currently available in Kingdom Come: Deliverance. A brief description of the Skill will be mentioned which will allow you to decide if a particular type of Skill works well with your playstyle.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance Skills

Skills can be upgraded by practicing them. Reading and Pickpocketing are different, however, as they need you to complete training which will allow you to advance them past the initial levels. Stealth, on the other hand, will be leveled up by doing stealth takedowns. Once you get to the Level 5, you will be able to kill enemies using stealth as well.

There are two different kinds of Skills. The first one is the Standard Skill Set which relates to the various different things that you may be doing over the course of the game such as Alchemy, Horsemanship, and Drinking. The second kind is the Combat Skill Set, which relates directly to fighting and will make you more effective when engaging enemies in battle.

Skills Tips and Tricks

First of all, we will take a look at the Standard Skills that involve non-lethal actions. These Skills will be used in multiple facets of the game and some of them will be very helpful for certain playstyles. Just make sure you only upgrade the Skills that you actually have the need for.

AlchemyAs you increase the Skill of Alchemy, you will be able to brew potions even if you make minor mistakes. This is an integral part of your kit and should be upgraded at all costs.

HorsemanshipWhen you increase this Skill, your horse will not become shy just as easily and will take a longer time to be tired so it will be able to gallop for longer. Increasing this Skill is also almost completely necessary.

LockpickingAs the name suggests, you will be able to pick locks much more easily as you increase this Skill.

DrinkingThe Skilled drinker does not get drunk as easily as the unskilled one. Increase it to have all the positive warmth of alcohol streaming in your blood while ignoring the negatives.

HerbalismAs you increase the Herbalism Skill, you will be able to collect more herbs than you usually would in a single action.

PickpocketingThis Skill has two advantages as you level it up. One of them is that people who are being pickpocketed will not notice you that easily. Another is that you will not be seen by as many witnesses as you usually would.

HuntingHunting is not a combat Skill because it does not make you more accurate while hunting or anything else like that. Rather, it increases the amount of meat and materials that you can harvest from your fallen prey.

ReadingUmmmmm, it allows your character to read books.

MaintenanceUpon increasing this Skill, you will be able to repair your weapons and other items at the grindstone. Provided you have a repair kit, of course.

StealthThis is also a Skill that has two advantages. One, it can shorten the distance at which you are spotted by an enemy. Two, it can increase the time taken to spot you.

Combat Skills

These Skills have a direct impact on your combat. They usually revolve around your attack or defense of a particular weapon and will be critical to your success in major fights.

AxeThis Skill will make you much better with the axe as it will increase the power of your attacks. Use it if you like to use the axe as a weapon.

BowAs you will probably expect, this Skill will increase the power of your attacks with the Bow. Use it if you like the ranged weapons as opposed to the melee ones.

SwordYou should probably be expecting this by now, this Skill will increase the power of your attacks with the sword.

Mace Increasing this Skill will make your Mace more proficient as it will increase the power of your attacks with the mace.

UnarmedIf you would rather go with your fists rather than weapons, then this is the Skill for you, as it will increase the damage of your fists.

DefenseThis Skill will be used to increase the time that you can hold a perfect block or a perfect dodge. It will also increase the defense stat of your weapons and shields.

WarfareThis Skill impacts every single aspect of your fighting by increasing the speed of your attacks. This is essential to success as it will allow you to deal more damage due to the enemies not being able to block it as easily.
